sources (for example, lighted candles).

• Do not install this player in a confined

space, such as a bookshelf or similar unit.

• Do not place the player outdoors, in

vehicles, on ships, or on other vessels.

• If the player is brought directly from a cold

damp room, moisture may condense on the

lenses inside the player. Should this occur,

the player may not operate properly. In this

case, remove the disc and leave the player

turned on for about half an hour until the

moisture evaporates.

• Do not install the player in an inclined

position. It is designed to be operated in a

horizontal position only.

• The AC power cord (mains lead) is not

disconnected from the mains as long as it is

connected to the AC outlet, even if the

player itself has been turned off.

• Disconnect the player from the wall outlet if

you are not going to use the player for a

long time. To disconnect the AC power cord

(mains lead), grasp the plug itself; never

pull the cord.

• Observe following points to prevent the AC

On watching 3D video images

Some people may experience discomfort

(such as eye strain, fatigue, or nausea) while

watching 3D video images. Sony

recommends that all viewers take regular

breaks while watching 3D video images. The

length and frequency of necessary breaks will

vary from person to person. You must decide

what works best. If you experience any

discomfort, you should stop watching the 3D

video images until the discomfort ends;

consult a doctor if you believe necessary. You

should also review (i) the instruction manual

and/or the caution message of any other

device used with, or Blu-ray Disc contents

played with this product and (ii) our website

(www.sony.eu/myproducts/) for the latest

information. The vision of young children

(especially those under six years old) is still

under development. Consult your doctor

(such as a pediatrician or eye doctor) before

allowing young children to watch 3D video

images. Adults should supervise young

children to ensure they follow the

recommendations listed above.

If you have any questions or problems

concerning your player, please consult your

nearest Sony dealer.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Caution: This player is capable of holding a

still video image or on-screen display image

on your television screen indefinitely. If you

leave the still video image or on-screen

display image displayed on your TV for an

extended period of time you risk permanent

damage to your television screen. Plasma

display panel televisions and projection

televisions are susceptible to this.

Since communication via the wireless LAN

function is established by radio waves, the

wireless signal may be susceptible to

interception. To protect wireless

communication, this player supports various

security functions. Be sure to correctly

configure the security settings in accordance

with your network environment.

No Security

Although you can easily make settings,

anyone can intercept wireless

communication or intrude into your wireless

network, even without any sophisticated

tools. Keep in mind that there is a risk of

unauthorised access or interception of data.

WEP

WEP applies security to communications to

prevent outsiders from intercepting

communications or intruding into your

wireless network. WEP is a legacy security

technology that enables older devices, which

do not support TKIP/AES, to be connected.

WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2-PSK (TKIP)

TKIP is a security technology developed to

correct the deficiencies of WEP. TKIP assures

a higher security level than WEP.

WPA-PSK (AES), WPA2-PSK (AES)

AES is a security technology that uses an

advanced security method that is distinct

from WEP and TKIP.

AES assures a higher security level than WEP

or TKIP.
